6:22 am
to get a new one, where can you go about getting the more modern ones? >> the fdny, of course, the donations are from the corporation. the last 10 years, over 200,000 they donate and probably have done more than that and that i can call us. 718-281-3870 and either we can set them up with a place that is doing an event or they can have their own event and why of we have the, larges, we would love to come and speak to them and do a half hour, 45-minute presentation. >> and on that note, more than a third of home fires happen. how can people prepare for that? >> the big problem we find is the cold snap and people like to go -- the only legal space heater is the electric one that we're showing here. >> okay. >> and you can have an electric space heater and that should have that marking, the ul. make sure it's a tested alarm.
